Amstel 1870

Brewed by Heineken Nederland
Style: Pilsener
Zoeterwoude, Netherlands

Dark yellowish with small soapy head. Aroma of malts and faint hops, quite fresh for a pilsener. Quite strong flavour for a pilsener, but just more of the same. Less boring, but still boring.

Pours a clear golden color with a reasonable white head. Slightly darker in color than an average pilsener. Aroma is slightly hoppy and with some spices. Flavor is watery like an average pilsener but with slightly more hops. A decent bitterness with a nice finish. But it’s still nothing really interesting.

Bottle: Clear, golden with a small foamy layer; papery nose with lemons, malt and glue; light to medium bodied, moderate bitter-sweet flavour, quite soft; slightly lingering, relatively dry bitter-malty finish with a touch of citrussy hops in the aftertaste. No glory at all, but not the worst Dutch lager......

300 ml bottle. From Valkenswaard, the Netherlands.
Clear golden colour with tiny white head. Sweetish malty aroma. Malty flavour with notes of hops. Some soda-like sweetness in flavour too. OK but not very interesting.

Bottled 300ml. -Golden coloured, medium sized white head, slight grainy nose. Malty, slight hoppy and grainy with weak notes of herbs and corn. Pretty boring but drinkable.

doesnt have a strong taste but its a nice beer, you can get away with this, nice unique bottle and look

Pours gold with a small head. Sweet, malty aroma. Quite heavy flavour but with an odd aftertaste. Somewhat peculiar - seems to try to be a Belgian ale.

Bottle. [thank you, Skortila/caesar]
Pours clear golden with a slight coppery sheen. Fine, staying, frothy, white head. Aroma is citric, some bready malts, light apple and sweetness. Medium carbonation, fair mouthfeel. Flavour is lightly dry, some citric notes, bready malts. A bit bland, but there is nothing wrong with it.
